Benefits of technology

This patent is about a system and method for managing code conversion requests between different coding standards. The system includes a management module that receives a request to convert code, identifies a code set converter, and locates a user-preferred code set converter pool if the most recent converter is not the best choice. The management module then searches the user-preferred code set converter pool to find the best one and loads it for use. The system also modifies usage data for each code set converter. Overall, this system optimizes code conversion efficiency and flexibility.

Problems solved by technology

Efficiently tuning, managing, retrieving, loading the thousands of code set converters is a challenging task for modern operating systems.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]The illustrative embodiments provide a method, system and computer program product for optimized code set conversion. Briefly, a user-preferred code set converter (CSC) pool is maintained. The user-preferred CSC pool includes a subset of all available CSCs, and the CSCs within the pool are dynamically reordered based on usage and system modifications. In one or more embodiments, the CSC pool is searched for a requested CSC prior to initiating a traditional search through all available CSCs.

[0015]In the following detailed description of exemplary embodiments of the invention, specific exemplary embodiments in which the invention may be practiced are described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention, and it is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that logical, architectural, programmatic, mechanical, electrical and other changes may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. The fo...

Abstract

A management module registers a request to convert code from a first code set to a second code set, identifies a code set converter (CSC), determines whether a most recently used CSC is the identified CSC and, in response to determining that the most recently used CSC is not the identified CSC, locates a user-preferred CSC pool comprising a subset of locally stored CSCs each corresponding to a preference index. The management module, in response to determining that the identified CSC is located within the user-preferred CSC pool, searches the user-preferred CSC pool for the identified CSC, loads the identified CSC, initiates the identified CSC that converts the code from the first code set to the second code set, modifies usage data for the identified CSC, and orders the user-preferred CSC pool based on a preference index for each CSC stored in the CSC pool.

Description

BACKGROUND[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The present invention generally relates to data processing, and more particularly, to code set conversion.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]A code set or coded character set is a set of rules that defines a character set and the one-to-one relationship between each character and its bit pattern. Code set conversion is used to convert encoded human language characters from one encoding to another. Code set conversion is an important feature in a multi-national server operating system, especially in an information exchange network, such as crossing platform information exchanges and network computing. Thousands of code set converters have been supported based on different requirements and standards worldwide. Efficiently tuning, managing, retrieving, loading the thousands of code set converters is a challenging task for modern operating systems.BRIEF SUMMARY[0005]Aspects of the described embodiments provide a method, a system, and a c...
